The Meal Kit Cost Reality

💡 Do the math on your actual cost per meal

Marley Spoon runs $9-12 per serving + shipping. A family of 4 getting 3 recipes/week pays roughly $300-400/month. Compare that to your actual grocery spending — most families spend $600-1,000/month on groceries including eating out. Meal kits often cost more than cooking from scratch.
